add clide ui open to drive GUI readers from the CLI (T-231)

The drive-half complement to clide status (observe): an agent can now
open a doc in a GUI reader from the CLI so it can show the user what
it's looking at. 'clide ui open tickets T-48' (decisions by id,
markdown by path) publishes a 'selection' to the kernel MessageBus that
the reader's ReaderNav picks up.

The verb (ui_command.dart) is decoupled from the kernel via a publish
callback, wired in main.dart to the post-boot-captured MessageBus, so it
stays Flutter-free under dart test. Reads CLI positionals or named args.

Also files T-232 (CLI argv args don't reach typed handlers -- the gating
drive-the-IDE bug) and T-233 (diff-panel ui.open follow-up).

Closes T-231 (under T-208).

/// Epic C (T-218) gave the CLI the *observe* half: `clide status` / `pane
/// list` read live UI state. This is the complement — the agent asks the
/// GUI to open a doc in one of its readers, so it can say "look at this
/// with me." Opening a reader doc is otherwise a UI-only action (a click
/// publishes a `selection` to the kernel MessageBus); this verb publishes
/// the same message from the CLI.
